OS Successful in Filibuster of 2014 Expansion Measure, But Easy Breathing Not Guaranteed

-Marina del Rey, Ca.
-The Feast Fest Organization Senate was unable to pass a proposal to expand to a two-Feast Fest, 14-hour Thanksgiving event in 2014 on Monday as purists successfully filibustered the event.

Pete Wilco, Lois Jenks, Dana Rethaulia, and Mike Leary discussed Tuesday's Obama-Romney election, California Proposition 30, turkey recipes, baseball, reality television, weather, fishing trips with Leary's sons, the Christmas cards Jim McAllister sends to all the OS members, and other such irrelevant topics in the successful all-day attempt.

But they might have to do it all over again Tuesday and Wednesday.

Jana Vaarhas, head of the movement in favor of the expansion proposal, said he would attempt to bring the proposal back to the floor Tuesday, and, if unsuccessful, Wednesday. On Wednesday, the OS will adjourn and will not reconvene until Feb. 4.

"We're glad we got this filibuster slammed down today," Leary said, "but by no means are we totally out of the woods quite yet."
